Subject: R: PDP - Discussion with ATRT2<br>
Date: Fri, 9 Aug 2013 00:07:18 +0200<br><br>
Sorry, I will be unable to make the 14 August call, I will be available
only in the late evening (CET) that is not one of the option
offered.<br>
However, I would like to contribute to the discussion prior to the call.
I have no problem in having my comments posted publicly.<br>
I will articulate a better contribution tomorrow, but for the time being
I would like to make the following points:<br>
· Agree with Mikey on
incentivating more participation by new people<br>
· The charter has to be
defined clearly, but not only – it has to be very clear what will be the
process after the conclusion of the WG (in the VI-WG we spent hours to
discuss “what will happen next if we don’t reach consensus” – I’ll
elaborate in a follow up post on why this is important<br>
· On “complicated” WGs,
resources are necessary, still quoting the VI experience, much progress
has been made in a F2F meeting<br>
· As part of the GNSO
Review, we stated that some resources should be made available for the WG
Chairs – this is important when the WG is “complicated” – I am sure that
in the final report of the GNSO Review WG we mentioned training for the
Chairpersons, use of facilitators, and so on<br>
· To the best of my
knowledge, there are “lessons learned” sessions, but there has never been
an effort to share experiences among WG Chairs or record for the upcoming
WGs what went OK and what went wrong in previous WGs, successful tricks
used, approaches that brought deadlocks, a.s.o. – much is left to the
“oral tradition” and to the memory of the WG members<br>
· For the “certain
stakeholders have not been able to adequately participate” issue, I have
my own opinions, it is also linked with the “chair warming” issue – since
this comment is going to be public, I will wait until my mind is fresh
and I will be able to articulate my thoughts in a politically correct
way<br>
Please be aware that I have not been active in the PDP process for more
than one year, and therefore I might have raised points that are
currently incorrect or superseded by events.<br>
Best regards,<br>
Roberto<br>

<br><br>
Dear All,<br><br>
It is my understanding that my colleague Charla has been touched with you
to schedule a call with the Second Accountability & Transparency
Review Team (ATRT2).<br><br>
The ATRT2's activities are focused on paragraph 9.1 of the AoC
where ICANN commits to maintain and improve robust mechanisms for public
input, accountability, and transparency so as to ensure that the outcomes
of its decision-making will reflect the public interest and be
accountable to all stakeholders. As part of its mandate, the ATRT has
decided to review the effectiveness of ICANN Generic Names Supporting
Organization (GNSO) Policy Development Process (PDP) and so determine
whether the current GNSO PDP process satisfies the needs of the multi
stakeholder model and Internet users. Given your experience and
expertise, the ATRT2 is interested in hearing your thoughts and wishes
you to share your unique perspective with them.<br><br>
The ATRT2 has a face-to-face meeting scheduled for next week (14–15–16
August) in Los Angeles. Would you be available - tentatively on
Wednesday, 14 August - to join their session remotely? Please confirm
your availability via
<a href="http://www.doodle.com/x9nk6czhz2exvsyh">
http://www.doodle.com/x9nk6czhz2exvsyh</a> by Thursday, 8 August –
COB. <br><br>
The Review Team has received your request for preparatory materials. Rest
assured that we will provide you with more information as soon as
available.<br><br>
I look forward to reading your doodle poll entries and thank you for your
help. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.<br><br>
Thanks<br><br>
Very best regards<br><br>
Alice <br><br>
